number of men at work here will
not exceed $50. 1t is the general
belief that by mid winter there
will be as many more at work.
This belief is based upon the ad-

the mental attitude thus applied
may be worth word by the way.
Are the high ideals possible;
can we work them out1 Most
decidedly not if we don't believe
we can. The first condition to
the performance of the very SIM
plest action is faith in our ability
to do it, but the least doubt par

the action impossible. Surely all

nameless who have stagnated and

And thus in the cycles Of the
ages mankind has. 80 to speak, 1
winter and summer and happy
springtime when faith is dominant
and the rose yielding to new i'm
pulses expands into higher and
more complex forms of thought
and action to be followed in turn
by the "sear and yellow leaf Of
skepticism and the bliehting frosts
of moral winters when civilizations
die. True this looks like progress
in circle but these circles are
spirals and we mount up higher
and higher with every circumfer-
ence. That wonderful essential
energy which underlies' all exist
ence and which has worked out
the complex phenomenan of the
material world as we see it to-day
from nebulous mass of matter, is
uniform and indestructable in es-
sence, constant and persistant in
action. The dominant factor alike
in decay and in. termination, it
crosses the invisible boundary be-
tween matter and mind, begets
the idea and lives in the action of
man, and everywhere as a result
of its operations we see law, de-
sign and adaptation of means to
ends. Now it is the certainty
that this force is ever working to-
ward higher and still higher ends,
as witness the progress from mol
lusk to man, and from the cave
dweller to Shakespeare, which
gives to the optimist his we'll
grounded belief that our civiliza-
tion is but one of a series of steps
in the rythmic march of nature
through the undiscovered deeps
of time," and that it is only forms
and types which decay and disap-
pear in order that the interior en-
ergy may work out grander re-.
suits. And so to-day the great
economic reforms which agitate
the world are but motions of this
force as yet showing only in
thought and the conflict of ideas,
but soon to crystalize in action
transforming social and economic
forms into harmony with the new
ideas. Opposed to this dynamic
and perennial energy we see
wiIats Tirv- u,rit~d stupidity Of
mankind, is backed up by money
bags, flunkey legislatures, paper
laws, fossil editors and Pinkerton
plugs, formidable array truly.
But defend yourselves, oh enlight-
ened Bourgoisie; form great bat
tallions and let them blaze away
at the rising sun; bring out your
dogs of war and let them bay at
the moon. w. G. Horn.

Aspen to the state Of. affairs II
some of our mines here. And
think some prompt steps shoult
be taken to awaken the principle:
of some who are at work at those
mines. At the Aspen mine, where
that tyrant, John Cannon, super
intends, tyranny reigns supreme
and the oppression is only equaled
by that which the slaves of India
live under. lam sorry to have il
to say that at this particular mine
where freedom ofspeech is denied,
and the very souls Of the men EN-
Iployed there are not their own;
that some of them are Knights Of
Labor. These-same slaves, how
ever, belong to, thu class Of loud
mouth-principle men, of whom
every community has their share,
and who are void of any principle.
If they ever had any principle,
they are afraid to stand by it,
which is worse than having none
at all.
Last week two menwent to work
at this same mine, and upon being
told, by that old tyrant Cannon,
the rules of the slaves who worked
there, promptly and unhesitatinglyI
quit, refusing in unmistakable Ian
gusge to work under such black
rules.
Again, at the LaSalle and Har-|
risburg mines, there is little
blicklegging going on. Nine and
ter hour shifts are at work, and
have been for some time past. OIL
the men working there, am sorry
again to have to say, some Of
tn EN- are knights. In fact have
been reliably informed that it was
a Knight who broke the eight-hour
rules first. Right here one will

saying, "oh, consistency, thou art

a conflict against further oppres-
sifns' Practically nothing. Yet
it will inevitably come to a gen
erl state of oppression through
OFT the entire camp if those fewl
blAekleasins --.ies are not stopped.
They can be stopped, and without !
any serious trouble. A commit I

PRISONERS SUNDAY.

In February of last year, at a meet
ing of about one hundred and fifty rep
resentatiye clergymen and laymen of
all denominations, strong resolutions
were adopted, approving the purpose
and work Of the Prison Association, of
New York, and earnestly recommend
ing the churches, upon one Sunday in
the year, to consider the relation of
Christian people to the reformation of
criminals. The last Sunday in Octo-
Der was the one designated for this
year, but there is no objection to any
pastor making use Of another Sunday
if more convenient for him. BY adj
dressing the Secretary of the Associa-
tion, William NJ. f. Round, 1876 East
Fifteenth street, New York City, dQcu-
ments relating to the condition of diff
ferent prisons, and reports Of the work
of the Prison Association of New York,
will be sent any minister who will give
assurance of wishing to use them.
